Re: Swerve Drive vs Mecanum Wheel drive?
Personally, I like both Mecanum and Swerve. However, my team decided that we weren't really looking to make a swerve drive due to the resource and experience concerns. Instead, we went with a modified octanum drive. With butterfly modules comprised of mecanum and colson, we feel as if we have achieved a similar performance to Swerve, but without several of the sacrifices.
When considering drive trains, you must consider everything. Do not make a hasty decision whilst either scouting or building. I suggest looking up 1114's drive train documentation. Implementing a system that allows for decisions based off of quantitative data enables a team to make intelligent choices.
